1st of all you have to be a small size to be able to buy cloth there. Each times I am in that area I do try to give them a chance and each time I am met with entitled staff who are not very knowledgeable (tried to tell me that I would fit in a size 6 when I told them I was a 10...) Do better! read more

Think about that perfect pair of jeans, they always have it. They also always have the best looking shoes, and cute jewelry. The owner is always so sweet making a very nice experience everytime I come shopping here. read more

I like their clothes. quality is fairly good. the return policy 14 days only store credit isn't my favorite. biggest issue: I really hope they change their outside picture billboard on backside of building in new space. As a mom of two littles who always pushes stroller past or has kiddos on bikes or scooters, it's wildly inappropriate and embarrassing. (especially being a boutique where infant and kids clothes are sold.) Why? read more

I was recommended this store by a friend of mine since it was my first time in Bend. It reminded me of a boutique I used to work at, which carries the same kind of brands we had, too, such as Free People, Amuse Society, Tom's, Wranglers, Volcom, etc. Everything was full price besides the sale items; I'd rather shop at the actual Free People store than buy that brand here. After letting 2 associates know that I didn't help, I decided to look at the sale section, which had pretty decent prices. While my boyfriend and I were just looking, we got told a total of four times in the span of 15 minutes that the sale was 50% off the lowest marked price. I couldn't take it anymore and just left. Here's a suggestion: since you guys are a smaller store, work on communicating with your coworkers to see if customers have been talked to. I know you guys were just trying to help but there comes a point where it becomes overbearing and annoying. Try to read your customers. To sum it up... the clothes are cute and trendy but I'd shop elsewhere. read more

Coolest. Shop. Ever. The owner is a professional bike racer and she started this store as her Plan B. Mix of styles to please both the sporty girl or guy and fashionista. I'm probably not cool enough to shop here, but I can't help myself. It is just pure retail heaven. read more

After reading the recent views, I was skeptical. They won best of bend, so I thought ok maybe there was a turn around. My co worker & sister in-law love this place, so I went. Service was ok. I picked up a pair of leggings. There was more I wanted to buy, but because of the views..........washed before wearing them no problem good fit. Wore them 2nd time yesterday, and from ankle to knee stiching came undone while at work. I called, they said "because they were worn and washed we can't do anything. "I wore them twice in 10 days less than 2 weeks, since reciept. Not going back, spent 40$ On a pair of leggings that lasted 2 wears. read more

Very cute clothes, the sale rack is definitely a steal! they required masks and hand sanitizer upon entry & dressing rooms are open. the staff can be a little condescending if you don't "look rich" or if you don't look over 18 because they don't think you'll buy anything but maybe it's a tactic. maybe i'm just sensitive. but i'd still recommend blowing a pay check here. update: after seeing other reviews, i don't think i was being sensitive read more

The women that work here are amazing! I needed help finding the right jeans for my body and everyone was so helpful! I left with three pairs and so much self confidence :) Thank you Vanilla read more

I love this boutique. Fashion is a blend of urban chic and skater. Right in the Old Mill district which offers ample parking and endless scenery. Staff is very friendly and helpful. read more

Vanilla Urban Threads - Women's Clothing Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Rude help! I've never been treated so badly in a store EVER! Asked for manager and I got the same attitude from the OWNER. Seriously, skip this store. Clothes are overprices and they don't value customers. Trust me your not missing anything at this store. Save yourself from the worst family run business in Bend. So sad. read more

Worst customer service I've ever received. I seriously wish I could give this place zero stars. I dealt with the owner which makes this even worse. I received a sweater for my birthday and went to return it WITH the gift receipt. I was told that because it was "not within a month of the purchase date and it's out of season now" that they couldn't return it. I literally just received this gift a week ago so there is nothing that I could do sooner but I understood they could not give me a return, so I asked if I could just do a store exchange for something that fit me. She said "well sometimes we make exceptions but not this time - there is nothing we can do". What.. Sometimes?! Like if you feel like it?! Give me a break. This was an $85 dollar sweater. Your customer service sucks and as the owner of a small business I would be ashamed of that. I will never be back and I will make sure all of my friends and family know not support your business either. read more

Very unprofessional and unhelpful staff. Deceiving return policy. Most recently, let us know that that sales items could be returned for 'store credit.' When we actually tried to make a return, it was suggested that we were liars, that "they would of never said that." There are other places to shop in town, try those! read more

I wish I could make this a zero star review. Purchased overpriced jeans, two pair on Sunday, different brands and was in a rush so I only tried one pair on. Girl assured me it was no problem if the other pair didn't fit. Brought back one pair the NEXT DAY, tags still on the jeans and sure, there was "no problem" for them, they keep my money and are "happy" to give me store credit. TAGS STILL ON THE JEANS, BOUGHT THEM YESTERDAY. HELLO!?! Well, they didn't have another brand that FIT me, so ya, that's a problem for ME, the CUSTOMER. I was only so so on the brand that did, so why would I want two pair of them? To top that, the little girls that work here are snobbish and make it clear they couldn't care less about your satisfaction. I won't shop here again. Ever. I've made it clear to my wife and daughter, they will NEVER shop here. I will tell everyone I know to NEVER shop here. Look forward to seeing this space up for lease. Reap it. read more

I have been shopping at Vanilla (inconsistantly) for 4 years, mostly because of the prices (the economy totally sucks). In the past, they have had some decent items like a jacket that I may have picked up here and there. Upon my last visit, I was blown away! They really have expanded the men's selection and have presented a more urban vibe. I have been digging their Kasil jeans which are durable, moderately affordable and just freaking sweet. Check Vanilla out, they have the latest and greatest in fashion. read more

This store is adorable!! The pics don't do it justice. The clothing selection is amazing and the staff sweet and friendly. A must boutique!!! I will continue shopping here. read more

This place has the cutest and most unique clothes in town hands down!! Also the owner and manager and really all the staff is SO helpful and kind!! And the have a great sale section too that I love read more

Vanilla is a great boutique if your style leans anywhere from beach bum to mountain chic. There are brands you cannot find anywhere in Bend and it's a clean, appealing store with a cozy interior design. However, I feel so uncomfortable shopping here. The associates are very standoffish and for the most part avoid you at all costs. If they're not chatting in groups at the register, they're rearranging the same stock over and over, but for some reason they don't reach out to help you. You will have to reach out to them. I understand that retail is rough, especially on busy days, but people also shop on their own rough days and you're not helping by being blatantly rude when asked about a sweater. Need a dressing room? Ask an associate and they'll take you right to one without saying a word. I live in Bend and come in often because I really do like their clothes, but my experience is always the same. I get looked up and down and (from my standpoint) judged the second I walk in until I leave. This is not the Bend vibe we want to send to travelers. Honestly just wanted to leave this review so hopefully the owner will talk to the ladies working there. There's so much potential to grow your customer service. read more

Discovered this gem last night while searching for shoes for my daughter. Even though we were there near closing time we were warmly welcomed and treated like royalty! The clothes and gear are so great! I can hardly wait to go back for myself!!! Thank you to the two lovely associates who helped my daughter and I. We felt safe and welcomed in your store even with COVID restrictions. read more

Clothing is SO CHEAPLY MADE!!! I was a sucker to their high prices thinking quality was legit but it's dog shit. Tried to get help from management after clothes deteriorated and no one helped me. #NEXT read more

They do a great job! Hanna and the manager are they way to go! I shop for my wife and they are so attentive to the details. I have never left there with a bad outfit for my wife and I feel good about the money I spend! I stopped looking at the other stores at the Old Mill and head straight to them! read more

I learned about this store from Erin at Olympia's Sweetlife --now at Salty in Long Beach, and so it was a must-see when I recently visited Bend. It is a huge space and carries many great brands --Free People, Tom's, Cosabella, etc. But the clothes are smushed together and hard to pull out to see. I think this store has the right elements for success but could benefit with someone like Erin's ability to display the product in a way that gives them space so that you can see them more clearly and appreciate the shopping experience to a greater degree. read more

A bit expensive but the clothes are really well made and the sales can have some real gems. The employees are super helpful and nice, they are great at finding what you're looking for(if they have it of course). read more

Amazing selection of fashions that are unique and great friendly customer service, will defiantly be back again.

July 2013 - Very disappointing experience. Bought full price non sale item and was told no refunds when I returned it a day later. To many other cool places to spend my money to have non customer friendly policies such as this....... Feb 2014 - Received a xmas gift from Vanilla Urban Threads that I tried to return. I was told I missed the "return window" for xmas gifts. Ha! First time I have ever heard such a thing. I left them with the shirt and went downtown and spent $350 on other things that I needed to get. Local Joe's has a fair return policy and I am way more comfortable spending my money there. VUT, you have a lot to learn about customer retention. I will make it a point to relate my two miserable experiences that I have had with your store at every given chance. read more

This place rocks. The clothes here are trendy, but not over the top. Prices are comparable to other stores that carry brands such as Ella Moss and Splendid. However, they also carry some cool brands I have never heard of that have proven to be of good quality. Great place to find a dress for a wedding or event (in what appears to the land of little choices in Bend). read more

Sat by the shoes with my two granddaughters looking at shoes. Wanted to try some. 3 or 4 sales girls were at the register chatting. Only a couple people in the whole store. Never offered any help. One even came up to me and asked if I was trying on the shoes that were left on the floor behind me by another customer who never received any help either. After she retrieved the shoes behind me on the floor she walked away never asking me if we wanted help or to try on any shoes. A missed opportunity for sure. read more

Selections for guys was close to nothing. Nice store but not my style. This is a small boutique so I'm being a little mean here but I couldn't find anything. Also, seems no one cares who walks in. Everyone is doing their own thing read more

This place is fantastic! I come in every time that I get over to Bend and have always had a great experience. The employees there are always helpful while not pushy. I see a mixed bag of reviews here, but I have been shopping there for years and have always been impressed with the level of service and curating of clothes they have there. I am fine with your return policy and thinks its silly that some of these reviews make some sort of issue of it. Keep up the good work Ladies! Found some fun stuff per usual this last visit! I will be back! read more

Staff was amazing today! Kelsey stood out but all interaction was above most! Really great selections and gorgouse clothing. A must go to store for those looking to shop in Bend. read more

Totally rad spot, owned and operated by a totally rad and awesome lady. The staff has always been very friendly to me upon each visit. The clothing selection is great for both men and women, although certainly catering towards a younger demographic. Their prices are completely reasonable and just what you'd expect with this kind of clothing spot. Hmm... writing this review just makes me want to head down there soon and check out new digs (as it's been a while since I've been here - not since their new remodel). Definitely worth checking it out, if you haven't done so, yet. High-five! read more

How could you not love Vanilla? This place is great. The employees are super helpful and so friendly, but they're never pushy. They have a truly awesome selection of clothes. I seriously find something I love every time I go there - and their shoes are killer too! I've gone there before and had Kiana help me pick out the perfect thing to wear to different events (weddings, parties, etc.) and every time she is spot on and I feel amazing in the outfit she helped me put together. I've just started making it a habit to go there whenever I need something cute to wear because she has such good taste - all the girls there do! You know you're in good hands when the person helping you pick something out is dressed well herself. All-in-all, I will happily give Vanilla 5 stars! read more

I love this store. It's a little on the pricier side but when I feel like treating myself this is where I go to find higher quality trendy items that are otherwise hard to find in Bend. The staff are friendly and attentive. I'm so glad there's a place to find fashionable options in town! The small investment on good staple pieces for my closet is well worth it. read more

Good place to shop, I like that they carry free people and good name brand items. A little over priced at times, employees are nice and helpful. read more

Although the sales reps were nice enough, I was not thrilled at the fact that they wouldn't return the $70 shirt I had bought that ended up not working out. I couldn't find the tag but I had my receipt. I bought the shirt 3 weeks ago and apparently they have a 2 week return policy?! Im not a happy customer. Buckle has a lot of the same product and I will be going there from now on. Sorry. read more

Of course cute and stylish clothing, but staff could care less about helping and saying hi unless you're dressed a certain way... They're more than helpful if they can tell you have money. From working at nordstrom for many years I know what good customer service is and this wasn't it. read more

My favorite store in Bend. Best selection of cute stylish clothes. Good mix of girly/bohemian/edgy as well as nice/more casual. Salespeople are always nice and there are occasionally great sales (esp the sidewalk sale). read more

Stopped in today before dinner for the first time and I was impressed at how cute the clothes and shoes were. They had pretty spendy pieces, and well priced pieces also. Mostly, everything I looked at (dresses) were sizes small and medium. Not sure if the Larges sell out quick, or if XL is available, but I hope the store reads the reviews here and sees what would be helpful to their customers. Even though I walked out without buying anything today because of the lack of size Large or XL, I will definately be back because I admired a bikini on the rack by Volcam that my husband and I instantly loved but the top was only in a small, and the bottom a M. The woman who helped me wrote down the brand/style in hopes I could find it online since she wouldn't be getting more in. Tonight I bought the bikini thanks to here help on a website I found. Given my big bust and big hips and butt, I'm going to have to try my luck at finding those sizes Large/XL next time I'm in. I'll keep trying :-) read more

I love Vanilla!!! It's my #1 go to spot to shop. I never miss stopping in when I am in Bend. The staff is amazing in helping pick out items I would never think about trying on and the clothing is beautiful. I never leave without a new pair of jeans because they are the best. I have always said if I could live in hammock in the corner of the store, I would do in a heartbeat:). I adore vanilla! Go! You won't regret it. See you soon Vanilla crew, I'm coming for Bend visits soon. read more

Great store! My girlfriend and I recently moved to Bend and couldn't be more impressed. The staff is all very friendly and knowledgeable for both of their women and men's brands. Good location and good prices for awesome clothes. Would recommend to any and everyone who stops into Bend. read more

Great store, very stylish clothes. I loved almost everything inside and the employees were kind and helpful. A bit pricey, but definitely worth a look around! read more
